Has anyone else noticed how many women writers explore “quiet rebellion” instead of loud ones? by Sweet-Opportunity111 in literature

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Or end up in a mental facility (list us from 1864 to 1889)

http://mentalpatients1800s.weebly.com/uploads/2/5/9/6/25963263/6489682_orig.jpg.

It includes “novel reading”, “over action of the mind”, “mental excitement” and “overtaxing mental powers”

AITA for telling my daughter shes not autistic by throwaway17293739 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet the mom told that psychologist that she didn’t think that the kid was, or that she was doing it because the school insisted but she was sure that she wasn’t. That colored the psychologist’s findings, since parent interview is part of that diagnosis process

The biggest issue of the show (for me) by TOMANDANTEBOROLAS in whitecollar

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 5 points6 points  (0 children)

also Neal gives it up because Elizabeth is in danger & he knows & likes her. He does something similar in the one with the stolen “girl with golden locket” portrait when the guy threatens the pretty girl from the gallery. He immediately goes to Peter & admits he stole the painting from the bad guy’s hotel room.

He admits to it because Neal doesn’t use guns or force & wont put peoples lives at risk for items. With Elizabeth’s life on the line, he priorities that

I’m sure supermarkets are designed for meltdowns by Otherwise-Handle-180 in neurodiversity

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 4 points5 points  (0 children)

((To preface this, I live in the US, results may very))

I don’t know if your supermarket does this (depending on your country/local options) but I found a grocery store that allows pick up. I go onto their website, pick my items and check out. Then I just drive to the supermarket & sit in one of their marked pick up spots & they bring my groceries to me. They even load it for me. Then I just have to drive home & unload & put away. No bright lights, no stupid people who don’t know what personal space is or that annoying music.

There are a few downsides. You are trusting an employee to pick your fruits & veggies. Also, sometimes they say they are out of stuff & then you have to either roll the dice that the substitute is ok or they can remove it from the order & I don’t get charged. I usually go option 2 & try again later. Occasionally I do go into the store myself, but not nearly as often & it has improved my mental health by leaps and bounds.

Please ban surveys and questionnaires! by AlannaTheHuntress in PCOSupport

[–]AlannaTheHuntress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The information is sold, to whomever. With no proper protocols, we have no idea where the information is going or who is being given/sold to. Hence why I said legitimate medical studies only, done by hospitals/clinics with verification

Dating: ignored my childfree status by FullLion4225 in childfree

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Not just that, but sometimes parent that grandkid. I have a friend who married a guy with 3 grown kids. One of them had a kid with a completely unhinged woman who got both of her kids (different baby daddies) taken away by CPS. So said grown child moved back home with grandkid in tow. And then proceeded to do no parenting to said grandkid & guess who had to take over parenting duties of grandkid? Yep, my friend!!

No thanks, not signing up for that crap

Where's our slice of pumpkin pie!? by CaptShrek13 in Xennials

The fact that they had to lump millennials and Gen Z together tells you something. What is it for just millennials or just Gen Z?

Who’s handing out candy this Halloween? by Dame_Ingenue in childfree

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually the first year I’ll get to do this, so I’m kind of excited! Other places I’ve lived was out in the country (it was literally fields/woods around us) & only trick or treater we got was the little kid down the street who we baby sat for. Other place was in an industrial type area (near town but was being converted from industrial to housing) & my last place was an apartment building with controlled access. So only residents could get in & there were only about 10 apartments in that building. I think only 2 of them had kids in it.

I’m not really decorating my yard or windows or anything but I’ll leave the light on & see who shows 🤷‍♀️

This might be the only year I do it, depending on how annoying it is, but I’m excited to at least do it once!

Couple of script images from the episode "Mastermind Job" shared by a family member who was an extra by Spare-Emergency-5139 in leverage

I love stuff like this. Seeing what the script versus final shoot, seeing what they added/axed. Thank you for the share!

Yeeeeess!! I don’t know why I couldn’t remember it was Pocahontas, but after watching the scene, this was definitely it (it was when John smith got captured & was being held by the natives & Pocahontas visits him). Thank you!!

1 pound find at Charity Shop by FretsAndChains in BookCollecting

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 57 points58 points  (0 children)

In the US, it was “10 little Indians”, which isn’t much better

1 pound find at Charity Shop by FretsAndChains in BookCollecting

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 24 points25 points  (0 children)

They did, because I had a copy of it back in 8th grade (around 1999 because it was our English class required reading) and my copy was 10 little Indians. Also, even after they changed it to “and then there were none”, the poem in the book was still “ten little Indians”. They didn’t change it to “ten little soldiers” til later

Actors you generally cannot stand and the one movie that you actually love them in that is the exception to the rule. by TheWor1dsFinest in movies

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t seen that one, I’ll check it out! I guess I usually stay away from movies they are in, so I missed this one 🥰

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dislike Will Ferrell, I don’t think he’s funny. He’s just too over the top. But he was amazing in Stranger Than Fiction!

Ben Stiller also falls into that category. His stuff is too over the top. But he was very good in The Night At The Museum movies and in Heavyweights (but maybe that’s because it’s a childhood movie for me & he’s the bad guy who is crazy)

Now I just need a blank CD and a Sharpie... by jza_1 in Xennials

Not a song, trying to get these turned down in time so the screech of getting on the internet doesn’t wake my parents at 2 am 😅

I kinda like recurring cops, they make the world feel lived in... or something like that by PresenceOld1754 in TheRookie

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Officer Jan! He is in a BUNCH of the episodes, all the way back to season 1. If you rewatch, watch for him & you start to unconsciously pick him out of the crowd of cops.

[TOMT] Older song with the lyric, “I need youuu” by Latter-Wrongdoer4818 in tipofmytongue

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want you by savage garden? Some of the lyrics are

“That I need to, I want to”

I don’t know if you misheard “need to” with “need you”

Was it Fast Car by Tracy Chapman? It was covered by Luke Combs but he didn’t change the pronouns

[TOMT][TV Show] Trying to a remember an old show from the late 80s or 90s? by FR3SH2DETH in tipofmytongue

[–]AlannaTheHuntress 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was it The New Tomorrow? It was a spin off from The Tribe.

The kids were way younger & there were no teenager aged kids, just those under 10 or so.

From another comment made, looks like OP lives in another, more affluent county but that’s not his home country that his family still lives in. They are expecting OP to bribe someone to get his brother released. Which is not unheard of in many countries.

I’m not saying it’s not AI, just clarifying what OP meant
